Mud Butte Tornado 5-6-2024

Joshua Tatman caught this tornado around 12:45 PM MST, just south of Mud Butte, SD... 30 miles ENE of Newell, SD. Thus far no damage and no injuries have been reported. This tornado appeared to "jump" several times as it moved northward towards Highway 212 and Northeastern Butte County - this means the tornado possibly receded back into the storm and then touched back down several times. The tornado warning was allowed to expire right as the storm approached Hoover, SD.

High wind Warnings and Winter Storm Warnings now follow the active day we've had across western South Dakota through noon Tuesday.
